Renaming Groups
You can rename the groups and layers that appear in the Layers list to further organize
your project and make each group’s and object’s purpose easier to identify. When you
rename a layer, the original name of the source media file on disk remains unchanged.
Also, changing a layer’s name in the Layers list does not change the name of its
corresponding source media in the Media list. You cannot change the name of source
media in the Media list.
To rename a group or layer
1 In the Layers list, double-click the name of a group or layer.
2 When the name is highlighted, enter a new name.
3 When finished, press Return to accept the name.
The new name is also accepted when you click another layer or group.
Searching for Groups and Layers
If it’s difficult to find a single group or layer in a large project, you can use the Search field
at the bottom of the Layers, Media, and Audio lists. It is similar to the Search field in the
File Browser, and allows you to search for all layers or groups with a name containing the
search term you enter.
To find a group or layer by name in the Layers list
1 At the bottom of the Layers list, Media list, or Audio list, click the Search button.
The Search field appears.
Click Search button to activate the search field.

2 Enter a search term in the Search field.
As soon as you begin typing, all groups and layers with names that don’t contain the
search term are hidden from view, leaving only a list of groups and layers that match.
